PBS says good night, Melanie, now security will escort you out. Melanie Martinez was the star of The Good Night Show, the
marquee show on the PBS-Comcast preschool channel,
Sprout. At least, she was until this week, when a parody PSA promoting "
technical virginity" (
video, NSFW) from her starving actress days resurfaced, thanks to a
Memphis radio station. PBS fired her, saying that the "video is inappropriate for her role as a preschool program host," even though it pre-dated her Sprout work by many years. A new meaning for the word
dooced?

Spray-on Mud - So you own a big 4x4, and you feel a bit stupid that you only use it to take the children to school. You want people to think you're a bit country - that you need 6 tonnes of car to get you from A to B because you like to take it off-road every so often. You need
Spray-on Mud apparently.

Another victim of 'The Amazon Treatment'. Remember the
Amazon post from the other day? Well, if you liked that, you'll love this one. This time, it's an anal douche getting what I'm calling "The Amazon Treatment". Amazon's going to scope this out and delete the 'reviews' - therefore if you're so inclined here's your chance to wallow in the merriment. If it's gone by the time you read this, I've copied some of the posts
here.
